As Welcome To Wrexham Is On Hiatus, A Fan Used Ryan Reynolds And Rob McElhenney For Classic Album Cover Spoofs, And They’re Perfect

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney sitting in conversation in Welcome To Wrexham.

Ryan Reynolds is known for his wild social media antics, which are hilarious on just about any given occasion. However, what I’d argue is even more humorous is when his good friends get in on the shenanigans as well. A person who typically joins the hilarity is Rob McElhenney, who – like Ryenolds is a co-owner of the Welsh football team Wrexham A.F.C. Their work with the organization has been chronicled over two seasons of the docuseries Welcome to Wrexham (which can be streamed with a Hulu subscription). While the show is on hiatus, a fan used McElhenney and Reynolds when creating spoofs of popular album covers – and they’re perfect.

The fan in question, who is an X user by the name of DarthPunk69, has some sweet skills. The basis for the artist’s two designs was the classic ‘80s pop duo Wham! For their creations, the user opted to superimpose Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s faces onto George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley’s on the Last Christmas and Fantastic albums. This may sound weird, but the results cannot be argued with. McElhenny shared them on his Instagram and shouted out the artist, and you can check out the post below:
